From Sign-Up To A Running AI Company In 3 Easy Steps

Self-hosting Paperclip means Node.js, PostgreSQL, a reverse proxy and a certificate before you can hire a single agent. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up To xCloud

    Create your xCloud account and choose your Paperclip plan. It takes about 30 seconds, and no server or technical setup is needed.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy Your Paperclip

    Click one button. We handle Node.js, PostgreSQL, the reverse proxy and SSL, and add your AI provider credentials. Your Paperclip instance is ready in under 5 minutes.

  3. Step 03

    Hire Your First Agent

    Open your Paperclip dashboard, plug in OpenClaw, Claude Code or any agent with a heartbeat, assign goals and let them work.

An AI Workforce Built For Real Multi-Agent Operations

Paperclip is an open-source orchestration platform. Instead of running separate bots, you define the mission, hire agents and let Paperclip coordinate them, on a server you own.

  • Org Charts & Roles

    Structure agents into departments and roles, the way you would a human team, so every task has a clear owner.

  • Goals & Tasks

    Set the mission, break it into goals and tickets, and let agents pick up work with a full audit trail.

  • Budgets & Governance

    Cap spend per agent and per company, and keep humans in the loop on the decisions that matter.

  • Bring Any Agent

    OpenClaw, Claude Code, Codex or custom agents plug in, so you are not tied to one model or vendor.

  • Multiple Companies

    Run unlimited companies from one deployment, each with its own org chart, budgets, agents and data isolation.

  • Your Keys, Your Data

    You bring your own LLM API keys and pay your provider directly. Paperclip does not bundle or mark up usage.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!
Brian Geovanny
I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.
Kevin Pineda
I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud
Ed Ellingham
xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.
Dumitru Butucel
xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.
Massimo Villa
Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin Heinrichs
I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.
Rahil Maknojia
Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

What is Paperclip AI?

Paperclip is an open-source orchestration platform that lets you run teams of AI agents like a company. Instead of managing individual bots separately, you get org charts, goals, tasks, budgets and governance in one place. You define the mission, hire agents (OpenClaw, Claude Code, Codex or custom) and Paperclip coordinates them. It runs on Node.js with PostgreSQL and is fully self-hostable.

How do I deploy Paperclip on xCloud?

Choose a Paperclip plan and check out, or create a managed server and pick the Paperclip stack under the Agentic web server. Add your AI provider credentials, and xCloud provisions Node.js, PostgreSQL, the reverse proxy and SSL for you.

Can I run Paperclip without Docker?

Yes. Paperclip runs directly on Node.js 20+ with an embedded PostgreSQL database, no Docker required. Setting that up by hand on a VPS takes time and technical knowledge, so on xCloud all of it is handled for you.

What server size does Paperclip need?

xCloud's Paperclip guide states a minimum of 4 GB RAM, so the entry plan is Cloud VPS 6 GB, which leaves headroom for the operating system. Choose 16 GB or 24 GB if you plan to run several companies or many agents at once.

Can Paperclip run multiple companies from one server?

Yes. A single Paperclip deployment supports unlimited companies with complete data isolation between them. Each has its own org chart, goals, budgets, agents and audit trail.

Do I need my own API keys, or are LLM costs included?

You bring your own API keys. Paperclip orchestrates your agents but does not bundle or mark up LLM usage, so you pay your provider (Anthropic, OpenAI and others) directly and pay xCloud for the hosting.

How is Paperclip different from OpenClaw and Hermes?

Paperclip is the orchestration layer that runs a team of agents as a company. OpenClaw and Hermes are individual agents, and either can be hired inside Paperclip.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.

Ready to Launch Your AI Workforce?

Deploy a managed Paperclip instance in minutes. Hire agents, set budgets and stay in control, on a server that stays online.
